> [@IAC](#): > > Their donations are still public How many CEOs can you name? I am at maybe 3. Doesn’t matter what their donation history is if you don’t even know who they are. Even one I can name, Tim Cook, spreads his money around. He puts business before his personal views. ---

It’s not about me, it’s about making smart business decisions. Most businesses do not like making political statements. Remember Bud Light and the transgender fiasco. Obviously in Teslas case, many do care, hence to dip in share price and sales worldwide. ---

That or market manipulators acting on the _current thing_ perpetuated by their media pals 🤪 The reality? Market saturation will stall sales until a more confident network is raised to match the next level of consumers. A lot of Teslæ are beginning to land on the secondhand market and beyond at this point and this number will only increase with time. ---

I kind of agree with this - which honestly makes for a bigger problem for Tesla than just Musk being a chronically online political advisor. I see a ton of non-Tesla EVs on the road and the deals are attractive…I am not sure I buy the argument that the average consumer is so principled that he/she would omit purchase of a car due to who it is associated with…(some will of course but you can’t explain the decline in sales etc. with only that.) ---

> [@IAC](#): > > The reality? Market saturation will stall sales until a more confident network is raised to match the next level of consumers. So the market for EVs continues to grow but the market for Teslas is saturated leading to a 20% drop in revenue for Q1 year over year? This just seems like a good time to apply Occam’s razor. Let’s go with the example below. > [@socal59](#): > > Remember Bud Light and the transgender fiasco. Bud light sales temporarily dropped 25% at the same time as the “transgender fiasco”. Was that due to market saturation in the cheap beer space or a segment of the American populace being aware of, and opposing, the politics of ABinbev. Again, Occam’s razor. ---

What if I told you the market for new BEV’s was in general also cooling down due to the same factor? Many of those hot fresh platforms introduced during and post CV shortages are now coming up on lease return and the market isn’t being kind to them which places many in a solid position as a CPO vehicle for those looking for a long term BEV purchase. ---

I’d say show me some data. What other automaker delivered 13% fewer EVs in Q1 25 as opposed to Q1 24.
